Dragonette, the Canadian/British electro pop band fronted by Martina Sorbara will be performing live tracks from their second studio album “Fixin’ to thrill” (09) and the chart topping “Galore” (07).

Fresh from their US and Canadian legs of the tour, the foursome will be stopping on selected European cities before heading down under at the end of November. Berlin, Cologne, Paris, London, Madrid and Barcelona will sample the band’s glistening melodies and witty lyrics on a full live format with group members Dan Kurtz, Joel Stouffer and Christopher Huggett.

London’s voguish Hoxton Bar & Kitchen and Notting Hill Arts Club will be hosting the UK gigs with support from Marina & the Diamonds plus Clock Opera and Brisbane band Yves Klein Blue respectively. Both stages have witnessed early performances from artists like Frankmusik, La Roux, Friendly Fires and Mark Ronson... One last chance to experience Dragonette on an intimate environment.

“Fixin’ to Thrill” continues to demonstrate the band’s excellent song writing skills with an indietronic affair of sophisticated pop sensibilities, flooded with irony, and packing up rebellious punches through their live performances or promotional video outputs.

From the Gallic post-punk on the title track, through the glacial electro of “Easy”, Dragonette experiment with mirror-balled country "Gone too far") and chamber pop ('You’re a disaster') while delivering their trademark sound on “Pick up the phone”, “Liar” and “We Rule the World”.

Martina’s vocals have been compared to an aural foursome of Alison Goldfrapp, Sarah Mclachlan, Gwen Stefani and Karen O, not being unnoticed by artists like Basement Jaxx and Martin Solveig, who have produced of lately successful tracks featuring Dragonette.
